  1. I’m glad to see UCAS still up right at the top in both categories. I used to use the NUS site for quite a few queries, but it just didn’t cut the mustard – at least not for me..

  2. TheStudentRoom definately deserves its place at the top. However, for those of you that are interested. http://www.StudentCreche.co.uk looks like a very promising site.

  3. No great surprise to see UCAS and TSR at the top. Recently, I’ve also started using http://www.StudentCreche.co.uk It’s pretty similar to TSR, but it’s much more cleaner etc. Coincidently, Aadil (above poster) has also mentioned it.

  4. Hoepfully Insideuni.com will be up there one day. The other site are great though.

  5. I second The Student Room. Great resource. Really well deserved!
